RecommendsApproves of CEO
Pros

Relaxed environment and dress code.

Support of work-life balance.

Everyone is free to contribute their ideas to anyone at any level.

Quarterly Q&A with CEO where all questions are answered.

Cons

Not as well known outside of the software industry. It seems to have big ideas but is a little slow in executing. Sometimes people are reticent to just make a decision and move forward and learn. It also seems like there are more decision makers (i.e., managers, product managers, etc.) compared to the people who create the products (engineers). Some groups are starting to outsource support/engineering, and the quality is often poor.

Advice to Management

Aggressively hire non-outsourced top engineering talent that can create products in the software as a service world. Be more assertive in moving fast—not just in creating the products, but in making the decisions that lead to creating the product.
